Zzz someone cut into my lane and scratched my front bumper!!
It's a few pimples dots and hairline.. Hairline I guess can be polished, pimples has paint off so I guess need to do touch up? Any good suggestion if I do touchup outside or just diy? Thanks |

QUOTE(mazda6mps @ May 31 2011, 01:22 AM) could be a case where left hand (SA) do not know what right hand (marketing) is doing? Or vice versa? Definitely got.What is shown in the Co. website do not really 'guarantee' the item comes along with the car....and happens when Sales & Marketing 'over-advertise' the product?!?  The moment i took the car last march, it doesnt wanna move when i shifted to d and release brake. Initially thought the handbrake was on but it really was the creep aid system. After some mileage, i notice the creep aid system is not as tight as the moment i took the car. to adapt yourself to the creep aid system, find a slop, press hard on the brake and then release. then press again and release. after few rounds, u will get familiar with the extended braking force before the car moves.

 Added on June 1, 2011, 12:49 am QUOTE(calmshot @ May 31 2011, 12:03 PM) hye, i might getting an insight or prius soon. still under decision. i like insight because of the small CC = less roadtax price and fuel, coz currently i own a 2.0 ltr car, so i need something smaller for commute to my office every day. The absorbers & springs similar to jazz/ city albeit slightly different track (different knuckle part number). Other than that, the rear coil uses different spring rate to compensate higher pre-load.I have one question, is the spring and absorber is the same as honda city? do you guys know what available aftermarket sport spring or adjustable for insight in Malaysia currently? because what the first thing i might do is to change the spring or adjustable to fit new bigger rim size. (ya i know bout fc and comfortability when using bigger rim) I just email Zeus bodykit in japan, and they quote me the price for insight Zeus full bodykit for around rm5k not including shipping and paint cost. for me i think it quite resonable because it is original from Japan and not custom made in Malaysia. for those who are interested, please email this guy yoshi@fujiyama-trading.co.jp 1. Insight Glamarous line 3 pcs set ( Front, Rear and Side ) JY110,000 2. Front sports grille JY35,000 3. LED day light.. JY5,000  No aftermarket springs for Insight yet. We can use the City's but rear will be slightly sag. Better look for those with hi-lo soft-hard and customize the height n damping accordingly. Nice bodykits.

Hey guys, I already consulted shorty regarding this. Might head over to his shop, but does anyone here know a shop in Subang or Seremban that will know how to fix the boot lamp? (I mean properly and not for the first time?) Worried once they mess around in the boot there will be a permanent rattling sound.

That info helps! Well, i plan to send for polish n wax see if i can remove the hairline scratches. Any ideas whether I should touch up first or go car treatment, then onlyngo or polish? |

Just me & my wife. As this is my 1st auto car, not quite sure on th gear usage. Should I use D all the way uphill or shift between D & S depending on the slope? As for downhill, should I only engage L gear all the way down? Appreciate your advise bros. |

Hi kensim, perhaps u should post a photo of the hairline damage so we can evaluate better? It depends on how bad the damage is then can advice whether u should repair first or send for car polish cab solve your problem.
